Lines: 25 I've noticed that during the recent spate of sprite discussions, people have mentioned downloading a volleyball game... That game, "Arcade VolleyBall," is *NOT* public domain, and posting it on a BBS is just like posting Word Perfect or SimCity. Arcade Volleyball was on the first Compute!'s Amiga Resource disk. The programs on this disk are copyrighted (and display copyright notices when run). Compute! pays top dollar for it's programs and, except for one "best of the boards" program on each disk, includes ALL original software on their disks. Among the programs I've seen on BBS's that are copyrighted are V, DD, X-Ray, Mosaic, and Rejection. If you see these, or any other Amiga Resource programs, please inform the sysop that they aren't public domain. If you're interested in writing a program for Amiga Resource, check out hte next issue of the magazine. They've got a $10,000 programming contest going. Best program gets $3500.... But they pay up to $2000 for the regular stuff they buy... (Ignore the signature below... I now have a CIS account too: 72077,1415. And D.Atkin on GEnie. He's everywhere!
